Core Tip |
We evaluated the time course of testosterone recovery and the prognostic factors associated with prolonged testosterone recovery after the cessation of long-term (≥ 36 mo) androgen deprivation therapy in patients treated with brachytherapy. Five years after cessation, 22.6% of patients maintained a castrate testosterone level. We should consider this delay when determining therapeutic effects. Lower testosterone levels at cessation were significantly associated with prolonged testosterone recovery.
